A “high-level gang member” was busted at a local post office Tuesday when he showed up to collect a package containing 10 pounds of marijuana with a street value of $120,000, West New York police officials said.

The U.S. Postal Police contacted the West New York Police Department about the suspicious package and surveillance at the post office at 54th Street and Bergenline Avenue was arranged, West New York Police Director Michael Indri said yesterday.

The police Tactical Patrol Force, Narcotics Unit, and the State Police K-9 unit apprehended Michelle Navarrette, 33, of 65th Street and Boulevard East, when she arrived to sign for the 10-pound package, reports said.

Navarrette was accompanied by Julio De La Cruz, 35, of North Bergen, who is known as a high-level Latin Kings member, and goes by “King D,” Indri said.

De La Cruz has been arrested in New York, Florida and New Jersey, the police director said.

Both Navarrette and De La Cruz have been charged with intent to distribute five pounds or more of a controlled dangerous substance (CDS), intent to distribute a CDS within 1,000 feet of a school and intent to distribute a CDS within 500 feet of public housing, officials said.

Navarrette’s vehicle was also seized and $2,000 in cash was found inside, reports said.
